Their official distributor for USA or North America, I forget.

XM has a Us distributor they ship from so I can’t see the shipping being that high. Also if you have prestige membership you save $100 normally on the statue alone.

Thanks for the correction. Looks like GFX is the best deal if you're a prestige member. If not, Secret Compass matches their price, and specfictionshop beats it by $50.

Thanks for the help guys. Unfortunately for me, I'm at 3 XM pieces, so 1 away from the Prestige thing.

Guess I'll check out GFX and specfiction.

Might save you a bunch on shipping, i had Magdalena shipped from XM to the US. 245 Shipping + 45 in taxes/duties. Was pricey to get it directly. I had the option to get it from GFX but they said it would be delayed because it was was going via Cargoship. Think im gonna stick with Secret Compass.

I don't see how. Her retail (non-Prestige price) is SGD $1200 which equates to approx. $909 US. GFX pricing has her at $999 which is well over even the non-Prestige XM price.

The prestige price is listed as SGD $1,080 which is only $818 US and I have not seen a single retailer sell her for that cheap.

EDIT: All of the above numbers are based on Catwoman who has the same price point as Poison Ivy.

Not that I know of but if it did recognize it, that would be the cheapest. It looks like XM website if prestige member and specfiction are the best ways to go if they are worldwide.

As long as Poison Ivy remains the same as Catwoman (and XM listed both at the same SGD $1,200) here are the options for people in the U.S.

XM website SGD $1,200 ($909 U.S.) or prestige of SGD $1,080 ($818 U.S.) plus Singapore shipping ($200-300)

BBTS $1,099 plus U.S. shipping

Secret Compass $999 plus U.S. shipping

GFX $999 plus U.S. shipping

Spec Fiction $939 plus U.S. shipping if you pay in full OR $999 plus U.S. shipping if you go the deposit or flex pay route

Hey guys, I had previously looked into it; spoken with XM and GFX and they unfortunately cannot give prestige pricing to their customers.
